Overview
In this course we’ll be looking at SAP Crystal Reports, and how to use it.
This course starts right at the beginning, and so is good for absolute beginners, but would also be useful for you if you have previously used it, perhaps viewing reports or making basic reports, and would like to improve your skills.
You don’t need to have Crystal Reports on your computer, as first of all we will install a trial version of Crystal Reports for free, so that you can use it on your computer free for 30 days. This way, you can practice with your new skills, experiment with your own data and create your own reports.
Completing this course will help you:
- Have a good knowledge of Crystal Reports, having installed it on your laptop.
- Know about the different types of data sources, and how to create a report from scratch, including grouping, sorting and filtering/selecting.
- Be able to format dates, numbers, text and other fields, insert and format graphics and other objects, and know when and why to insert additional sections.
- Find out why hard-coded figures do not give the best interaction to the end-user, and use parameters to overcome this problem.
- Add all manner of graphs, from bar charts to pie charts, radar charts and more.
- Create subreports and drill-down reports, including using Cross-tab (PivotTables) in these reports.
